Android Wear Accounted for Less than 10% of Smartwatch Sales in 2015

Android Wear accounted for less than 10 percent of the global smartwatch sales to the end users in 2015, according to research.
Rival Apple Watch, on the other hand, claimed 52 percent of the smartwatch market in last year in just eight months of its release, Juniper Research says.
Samsung’s Tizen-based Gear 2, which was released in November, also failed to make an impact in the market.
“The smartwatch is now a category waiting for a market. Newer devices have offered more polished looks and subtly different functions, but no large changes in device capabilities or use,” research author James Moar said.
